    Yes I agree but what I was mainly referring to was him not having the biggest player on the floor guarding him. He could use his quickness and handle to break down bigger defenders but most power forwards can keep up with him. Our spacing issues don’t help the situation either

    Why Nwaba getting so many minutes when we got KMj on the bench?..

    These lineups don't make any sense.

    I just don’t see how people think Ben Simmons would fit here. The shooting is atrocious on a nightly basis, and 1 guy isn’t saving this defense.

    I've seen enough of Christian Wood and Danuel House on this team. Negative basketball IQ in human form.

    He's gone from being the highlight of a horrible season and the Rockets only hope to an afterthought with all of the hype focused on the young backcourt.

    Can't be good for him mentally

    Sengun for a desperate fade as the shot clock his 0, that's a dead play if I ever seen one. Also, how are we so collectively bad at FTs?!?

    Ya he made a more difficult cross body pass to Sengun when Green was the easier pass. Weird.

    And Green is the better 3 pt shooter where it would make more sense to pass it to him.

    Wood is only focused on getting his in a preseason game.

    I think he says them as threats. He wants his own team

    Sengun has a natural feel for the game and his passing is great. But he’s got no lift, so he is having trouble getting his shot off. Maybe he needs to work on a higher release like Jokic.

    KPJ is not a point guard.
